JESU JOY OF MAN'S DESIRING FROM CANTATA 147

Grade 3 - Score Only

Series: Anglo Music Concert Band
Publisher: Anglo Music Press
Level: 3
Composer: J.S. Bach
Arranger: Philip Sparke

Bach's appointment as cantor at Leipzig's Thomaskirche in 1723 required him to produce a new cantata for every Sunday service. Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring is taken from No. 147, and is unusually elaborate, treated more like an aria than a chorale. It is easily the best-loved cantata movement from Bach's entire output and is a certain crowd pleaser for your concert program.
